Tampa should take that tbh
11th overall and a former 1st rounder for someone who never scored 50 points is an amazing return. Yes I know Cirelli is a defensive god but still I'd do it

If ur trading for Cirelli it's not for him to centering Cozens lol. Put him on the 3rd line center position and give Cozens a chance to right the ship

They need both. I suspect they will try to get a 3c because if they don't go outside the organization, the 3c will be either Krebs or kulich. Krebs didn't do enough in a small window he had at 3c, and the Sabres are under some pressure to win, that can't be plan A. Kulich has the same defensive deficiencies as Thompson and cozens, and he will be a rookie. The defense needs righties that can play hockey, and some grit, my guess is they will barely look for either. I suspect they will just roll out 5 lefties- dahlin-samuelsson, byram-power, ryan johnson-Clifton. It's not a build that I support, but there's talent there, it's probably gonna be plan A.

Edit- the op here has the Sabres moving ryan johnson for borgen, which would be a very solid move, but I don't know if that's enough to get borgen out of seattle.

woof, Cirelli is great but overpaid to be a 3C
